Valentine Deer Pull Card

Good morning friends

It's Flip-It Friday here on my blog and I have a Valentine Z-fold card to share today! I am working at using up things from the little piles that accumulated on my stamping table over the holidays. This deer is one of them ... it was stamped in pink on blue - just to see how I liked it. Then I die cut it and put it in the pile as it wasn't what I was looking for at the time.

The green striped circle was also in the pile, leftover from the front of a shaker card (that will be shared later, when I can show some of the new Karen Burniston CHA release dies.) The deer fit the striped circle perfectly, so I decided to use them together to make a Valentine for our Granddaughter Olivia.

I cut the Spiral Circle Pull Card from green card stock, then added printed paper borders and some stickers.

Inside, I penned 'hello Deer' and there is a circle for us to write a Valentine Greeting. Olivia knows when there is 'no writing' inside a card, and she will ask you where it is if you forget. Man, I love that little girl. :-)

My Blogs

I have had a love affair with paper and scissors as long as I can remember. Card stock, stickers, stamps, ink, dies ... I love it all. I took up Loom Knitting in 2011 and also really enjoy knitting without needles so started a blog to share my creations with others. On a road trip in 2015, I stumbled across Zentangle and was immediately hooked. Instead of combining my Zentangle with my card posts, I have now started a blog for that as well!
I live in Alberta Canada, with my DH and 2 furry kids.
Note, I made the background for my Loom Knitting and Card blogs using papers from digital kits by Gina Cabrera at Digital Design Essentials.
